Bright ruby color with intense hues. Exhibits an aromatic intensity on the nose. Velvety and elegant with a powerful finish on the palate. Fruity bouquet of cherry and red currant fruit with subtle hints of oak. Silky smooth mouthfeel integrating fruit and oak perfectly. Long, persistent and satisfying finish.
